Answer:
D. 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the question stated that the number of marbles given out to his 6 friends were equal, we are certain that the total number of marbles is a factor or multiple of 6.
The only other assumption here is the number of marbles given has to be whole number. This means we just have to go through the answer choices and pick the one that is a multiple of 6.
A. 15 - This is wrong as 15 is not a multiple of 6.
B. 33 - This is wrong as 33 is not a multiple of 6.
C. 56 - This is wrong as 56 is not a multiple of 6.
D. 60 - This is CORRECT as 60 is a multiple of 6.
If Jorge gives each of his friends 10 marbles each, it would bring the total number of marbles to be 60.
Technically, none of the equations.
The equation you're looking for would be:
x²+(x+20)²=150²
Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.
He purchased 3 video games.
Let the cost one one video game be v.
The cost of each video game is same
So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.
Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.
Hence
3v + 14 = 65
Subtracting 14 from both sides
3v + 14 -14 = 65-14
3v = 51
Dividing by 3 on both sides
v = 51/3
v = 17
Hence the cost of each video game is $17
Answer:
17.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 17 hours between heights of 18.6 cm and 15.2 cm, the candle lost 3.4 cm in height. That is, the height decreased at the rate of ...
(-3.4 cm)/(17 h) = -0.2 cm/h
In the 4 hours between 12 hours and 16 hours of burning time, the candle will have changed its height by (4 h)(-0.2 cm/h) = -0.8 cm.
The height at 16 hours of burning is then 18.6 cm -0.8 cm = 17.8 cm.
